Bishop Leo Frade and Diana

#2013-0804

Yesterday afternoon Bishop Leo Frade (Bishop of Southeast Florida 美國聖公會佛羅里達東南教區主教) and his wife Diana arrived at St. James' Episcopal Church, in Taichung City, Taiwan. They were warmly welcomed by Rev. Charles Chen, Rev. Philip Lin, and other representative members of the church, having dinner together at Da He Wu, a sea-food restaurant near the church. (See the 1st photo below.)

This morning (Sunday, August 4) our English service started at nine-thirty, as usual. Both Bishop Leo and Diana were with us celebrating Holy Eucharist. Bishop Leo was the celebrant and he preached a short but touching sermon. After the service we had a Potluck brunch downstairs [just as we usually do on the first Sunday of the month]. We enjoyed this fellowship time a lot, chatting with Bishop Leo and Diana, our special guests from afar.

And then, Jean and I took Bishop Leo and Diana to Sun Moon Lake by car. We four spent the rest of the time today sight-seeing there, as you may have guessed, by boat, by cable car, and on foot! -- The photos below except the first six ones can tell how enjoyable the trip was to us four. And the last photo is by Jean, who took it at The Fighting Cows/Oxen (牛相觸), a local restaurant where we had dinner on our way back from Sun Moon Lake.
